Instead of expecting to revive the economy by throwing money to defaulted or toxic loans of banks and stock market speculators, we should suggest the following resolution to Congress:

Whereas, the employees of industries, businesses and public services of local and state government serve the public good and interest by providing goods and services, which directly influence the prosperity of the United States, we members of Congress, gathered today hereby propose that Congress enact into law the authorization of the federal government to fully fund the payment of all taxable wages for each person, who is employed on location in the United States, by such employers as listed above, whose operation is legally based in the United States, and that such payment be made in a manner according to the prevailing legal wage pattern established by and for each such employer, and furthermore that Congress shall have the authority to authorize the continuation of this enactment each year thereafter by the approval of an affirmative majority of the members of both houses of Congress.

There are many benefits to support the adoption of this proposal.

 

The Congressional appropriation of money, to pay the wages of all employees in the US, (the military, being exempted), would stabilize and invigorate the current and future state of the economy.

Removing the cost of wages from employers will spur employers to use that savings to develop new and appropriate economic applications.  

This proposal to “pay the wages of all workers in the U.S.” would win the support of the Democrat and Republican members of Congress, employers, and workers in the U.S.

The government payment of wages would increase job opportunities and help resolve the concerns of whites and minorities, regarding who gets to be employed and would help to prevent the potential ethnic conflict that could result from economic disadvantages.

It would also enhance the importance of organized union membership as an enlightened labor movement and win the goals of all workers in America. Unions would have a significant role to play in business, industry and public services by recruiting employees for career placement opportunities and organizing the management of employees.

President Ron Gettelfinger has noted that 8 to 10% of the cost of a GM car is attributable to labor costs.  If the Big Three auto companies were freed from their labor cost, those companies could invest those cost savings to maintain their employees and adapt their operation to the production of products and services that are appropriate for viable customer markets, including efficient, affordable public transportation.

The US Department of Labor has reported that the wages paid to ALL workers in the US during 2007 (except for the military) was  $1.532 trillion dollars.  

Compare that $1.532 trillion productive amount of dollars with the enormous bailout funds of dollars that have been recently paid to resolve the collapse of toxic bank assets, which do little or do nothing to stimulate the economy.  Will the government expect or be able to recover its funding of bank bailouts?  

On the other hand, the government will be able to tax the incomes of all employers and the full employment of their workers and recover more than the money it spent to pay the wages of the workers in America.   

If Congress authorizes the government to assume the responsibility of paying the wages of all workers in the US, a spectacular increase of job opportunities will occur to meet the increased demand for workers by thriving established and new employers who need employees with new labor skills that fit new technologies.  A need to train people for opportunities will utilize a corresponding increase in the use of education facilities to achieve that demand.

This guarantee of wages, paid to employees of business, industry, and public services, will provide those workers and their families with expendable incomes.  That income will generate customer purchases of much of the output of those industries, businesses, and public services.  Those customer purchases will maintain a secure American economy.

When freed from labor costs, employers of industries and businesses would be able to use that saved portion of their income to renovate their operations and innovate efficient cutting-edge operations and employ additional workers to serve America’s production and distribution of goods and services that consumers and workers need.

erna4 State's Unalienable Rights

In everything we do as individuals, we dare the future – our future and the future of humanity and the earth.

Do we have a responsibility in what we do?  It is obvious that the government courts believe we are responsible for what we do.  Our conscious mind shows that we ourselves have a conscience that confronts us with responsibility for what we do, and it tries to warn us that what we do or might do will produce consequences that affect us and other people and the world in which we live.

You and I have unique opportunities to do many things of small dimensions and some of significant importance, at given moments in our lifetime. Human history records the choices that some persons made which significantly influenced hundreds or thousands of people, for good or bad.

Each of us is given the breath of life by our Creator for a reason.
That breath of life moves us to perceive things and realize we need opportunities to choose goals that we might pursue and be happy with our efforts.  If our goals are good, their achievement will probably affect other people in the world in some way.

A great truth comes to mind: we are endowed by our Creator with certain unalienable rights.  The Declaration of Independence suggests that.  What is it that each of us should do with those rights?  

The Bible tells about instances where men and women chose to act in a situation that caused significant consequences.  The Bible allows us to recognize that there are good and bad consequences that result from the choices that we make.

Can we ignore the cost of the greed that caused the debt that Americans now face, while their jobs disappear and the security they expected from investments prove to be fragile or unreliable?

The stock markets and banks have proved that the money system that governed our society was no more reliable than risking our life on the toss of dice in a gamblers’ den.  We realize now that we become gamblers when we live in a government that allows our wellbeing to be determined by the dice that is thrown in a money system.

Each of us has a right to goods and services.  The Declaration of Independence tells us in its second paragraph that our Creator endowed us with the right to institute a government that will secure goods and services for each of us.  Access to goods and services is the basis on which our other unalienable rights can become available.  We must be able to live and be free to choose appropriate opportunities with which we might live our lives and be happy with our choices.

Government is a cooperative endeavor.  If we expect to obtain an abundant life, we must be honest and willing to try to do our best in helping others and ourselves.  We are the ones who must determine what government does.  Government must depend on our consent.  Good government can achieve things and accomplish tasks that would be impossible for us to do by ourselves alone.

Good government depends on our conscience and follows the values and goals that we assign to it.  Government can do great things.  It can also do bad things, if we the people allow government that opportunity.

Rich and powerful slave-owning white men created the Constitution.  The Constitution gave government the power to create money.  It gave money the power to build or destroy goods and services.  It gave money the power to convey to the wealthy the authority to rule society, and the power to arbitrarily deprive some people of their right to live.

 Our salvation will not and cannot come from the Constitution.  America was founded on the blessing of the Declaration’s second paragraph.  It tells us that all people have the right to alter or abolish destructive government, and we have the right and duty to throw off any form of government that has become tyrannically destructive of the unalienable Rights.  We are endowed, by our Creator, with the right and responsibility to institute new government to secure our safety and happiness.
   
Our present crisis suggests imminent catastrophe.  Money has produced a den of thieves, who have crafted the dream of greed for themselves.  They threaten Americans and the people of the world.  We have a short window of time to change, before the complete viciousness of the money system might choose to destroy us. 

The thieves, themselves, are worried that their worship of money and mammon has not earned them protection from disaster.  Thieves seek advantages over other thieves by manipulating the news and print media to entice other gamblers to choose a strategy that will fail them and allow the surviving thieves to escape a similar or worse outcome.

For over two hundred years, the Declaration of Independence describes how our present crisis could have been averted.  In the second paragraph, the Declaration tells us that government should secure for each person the unalienable Rights that our Creator gave each of us.

Our salvation will not come from the Constitution.  If we don’t abolish the Constitutional government that erected the idol of money and deployed it to destroy the unalienable Rights of other people, then we can expect the people of the world to throw off our government because it has allowed the bankers’ greed for money to destroy them.  

The consequence for us is immense.  A collapsed money economy could impoverish every group of people of common heritage in America and excite them to seek goods and services to survive as a group.  

If the means of production and distribution of goods and services became inoperable, long enough to create a serious scarcity of food and running water, coupled with the loss of heat and light central services, or the lack of safety and protection of homes and medical care – the prospect then of civil war would be probable beyond doubt.  

Despite the best efforts of leaders, the prospect of hope, for America’s ethnic identities, depends on the grim task of cultivating a willingness in all people to cooperate.  Rebuilding America’s means of production and distribution of goods and services from scratch, will require leaders to understand why our unalienable Rights never included the use of money.  It was for a very important reason – the nature of money has always been to seek to ultimately destroy everything that our Creator intended for mankind.  

We must now seriously consider our need to institute the Birthright government in America, which the Declaration fervently promised would become the government of America.

Our Creator intended America to be founded with that government.

We have the right and duty, and other people of the world also have the right and duty to alter or abolish or throw off any form of tyrannical government that becomes destructive of unalienable Rights.

The Constitutional government must be altered or abolished because it established money as the ruler of America -
it enabled bankers and speculators to control the powers of government
it enabled money to use laws to undermine and impoverish people
it disabled the unalienable Rights of people  
it subjugated people of other countries throughout the world
it ignored the Creator of our unalienable Rights.

If we Americans fail to throw off the Constitution, which fosters the  tyranny of the money government that rules America and endangers other peoples of the world, then we can expect that peoples of the world will throw off America, because we will have allowed the bankers’ greed to attempt to destroy the world of people.

So, what can we do?  What should we do?
